The commentary of John Colet (1467-1519) on Dionysius the Areopagite’s Ecclesiastical Hierarchy adapts a work widely neglected by medieval theologians to the early sixteenth century. Dionysius’s “apostolic” model allowed Colet to set ecclesiastical corruption against the ideas for re-forming the mind as well as the church. The commentary reveals Colet’s fascination with the Kabbalah and re-emergent Galenism, but it subordinates all to harmonizing Dionysius and his supposed teacher, Paul. This first new edition in almost 150 years and first edition of the complete manuscript is edited critically, translated expertly, and provided with an apparatus that advances historical, theological, and rhetorical contexts. It resituates study of Colet by identifying a coherent center for his theology and agenda for reform in Tudor England.

"'Dionysius the Areopagite' is arguably one of the most mysterious and intriguing figures to emerge from the late antique world. Writing probably around 500 CE, and possibly connected with the circle of Severus of Antioch, Dionysius manipulates a Platonic metaphysics to describe a hierarchical universe: as with the Hellenic Platonists, he arranges the celestial and material cosmos into a series of triadic strata. These strata emanate from one unified being and contain beings that range from superior to inferior, depending on their proximity to God. Not only do all things in the hierarchy participate in God, but also all things are inter-connected, so that the lower hierarchies fully participate in the higher ones. This metaphysics lends itself to a sacramental system similar to that of the Hellenic ritual, theurgy. Theurgy allows humans to reach the divine by examining the divine as it exists in creation. Although Dionysius' metaphysics and religion are similar to that of Iamblichus and Proclus in many ways, Pseudo-Dionysius differs fundamentally in his use of an ecclesiastical cosmos, rather than that of the Platonic Timaean cosmos of the Hellenes. This book discusses the Christian Platonist's adaptation of Hellenic metaphysics, language, and religious ritual. While Dionysius clearly works within the Hellenic tradition, he innovates to integrate Hellenic and Christian thought."--Provided by publisher.

This text examines the writings of an early 6th century Christian mystical theologian who wrote under the name of a convert of the apostle Paul, Dionysius the Areopagite, and argues that the pseudonym and the corresponding influence of Paul are the crucial lens through which to read this influential corpus.

Das Corpus Dionysiacum Areopagiticum ist eine mit Randkommentaren (sogenannten Scholien) versehene Sammlung von vier Abhandlungen (De divinis nominibus; De caelesti hierarchia; De ecclesiastica hierarchia; De mystica theologia) und zehn Briefen (Epistulae) des Dionysius Areopagita, eines christlichen Schriftstellers des sechsten nachchristlichen Jahrhunderts. Nachdem die vier Abhandlungen und die zehn Briefe (in zwei Bänden als Corpus Dionysiacum Areopagiticum I und II, = PTS 33 und 36) bereits herausgegeben wurden, folgen nun die Randkommentare (in den Bänden Corpus Dionysiacum Areopagiticum IV 1, IV 2, V 1 sowie V 2).Dionysius Areopagita zählt zu den bedeutendsten Autoren der Philosophie und Theologie und daher auch zu den meistkommentierten Autoren der Spätantike, des Mittelalters und der Renaissance. Als Folge dieser ausgedehnten Kommentartradition reicht seine Wirkung über die Scholastik und den Deutschen Idealismus bis ins 20. Jahrhundert hinein. Einen wesentlichen Anteil an dieser Wirkmacht haben die ersten Randkommentare des Johannes von Skythopolis, die als redaktioneller Teil des Corpus Dionysiacum Areopagiticum die Abhandlungen und Briefe des Dionysius Areopagita in den ersten Jahrhunderten ihrer Verbreitung stets begleiteten und durch kommentierende Zusätze weiterer Scholiasten erweitert wurden. Alle diese Randkommentare (Scholien) bestehen aus dem Lemma, d.i. der Verweis auf die Textpartie, und dem Interpretament, d.i. die eigentliche Erklärung. Das einzelne Scholion ist Teil des Kommentares, d.h. der fortlaufenden Erklärung des Textes, die gleichsam aus mehreren aneinander gereihten Scholien besteht und sich auf alle Wissensbereiche erstreckt. Durch die Notierung der Scholie am Rand des Textes kommt es zu einer praktischen Verbindung zwischen Kommentar und Text.Die Übersetzung dieser Scholien ins Lateinische durch Anastasius Bibliothecarius ermöglichte und erleichterte die Auseinandersetzung des lateinischen Westens mit den griechisch verfassten Abhandlungen des Dionysius Areopagita. Band IV 1 enthält Prolog und Randkommentare des Johannes von Skythopolis zum Traktat De divinis nominibus des Dionysius Areopagita mit kommentierenden Zusätzen weiterer Scholiasten.

The volume contains contributions dedicated to the person and the work of Shalva Nutsubidze and his scholarly interests: the Christian Orient from the fifth to the seventh century, the Georgian eleventh century, the Neoplatonic philosopher Ioane Petritsi and his epoch and Shota Rustaveli and mediaeval Georgian culture. Among the articles are a new edition and translation of the original Georgian author’s Preface to the lost Commentary on the Psalms by Ioane Petritsi and the editio princeps with an English translation of an epistle of Nicetas Stethatos (eleventh century), whose Greek original is lost. The traditions of Georgian mediaeval thought are considered in their historical context within the Byzantine Commonwealth and are traced in both philosophy and poetry.
